Photoautotroph

Photoautotroph

An organism that uses photosynthesis to create food out of light energy

Plants.


The photoautotrophs make their own sugars.

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis

The process of using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into food.

The ground.


The process of photosynthesis is used by most autotrophs.

Thylakoids

Thylakoids

Holds the place where light reactions take place.

Thylakoid.


The thylakoid holde these items.

Grana

Grana

A stack of thylakoids in the stroma.

Many thylakoids,


The Grana is a type of this.

Stroma

Stroma

The tissue around the grana.

Grana.


Many grana are held here.

Chloroplast

Contains chlorophyll and is where photosynthesis happens

Thing around chlorophyll.


Chloroplast is usually green because of pigments.

Chlorophyll

A green pigment that absorbs light and does photosynthesis.

Many Thylakoids.


Is the holder of this and is a certain color.

Light Reactions

When light is absorbed and converted into ATP in phase 1 of photosynthesis.

Phase 1


Light reactions happen to create this.

Calvin Cycle

A series of reactions taking place during photosynthesis.

Making sugar.


The Calvin Cycle is vital to photoautotrophs.

NADPH

Chemically reduced form of NADP. Has one less electron.

NADP - something.


NADPH is involved in light reactions.

PGAL

An intermediate to the metabolic systems of organisms.

C3H7O8P


PGAL is used during The Calvin Cycle.

Photoinhibition

The photosynthetic capacity of plants and algae.



Algae. They use photoinhibition. -->

Saturation Point

The point of when no more vapor can occur and cannot be dissolved into a substance.

Adding chocolate powder to milk.


The Saturation Point is often a peak of this...

Limiting Factors

Limits the growth, abundance, or distribution of organsims in an ecosystem.

Not enough water for everyone.


Limiting Factors are often abundances of materials needed to live.

Rubisco

An enzyme that helps in oxygenation during photorespiration.

Rubisco.


Is a digestive item.

Photorepespiration

Turning carbon and water into energy. Letting out oxygen and Carbon Dioxide.

Oxygen.


Photorespiration takes place in plants.

C4 PLants

Plants with 4 Carbons.

C4 is a compound.


C4 Plants need four of these to live.

Stromates

Connective tissue framework in the Calvin Cycle.

A stroma Gland.


Stromae are a part of the Calvin Cycle.

Aerobic Cell Respiration

The process of breaking down food into energy needed for cellular work and life.

A human Lifting weights.


Humans exercising to convert food into Energy.

Chemoautotroph

An organism that gets its energy through chemosynthesis.

Some bacteria.


Usually found in extreme environments.
